Review

“This is a tremendous public-access design in a remote location but is well worth the trip. The very large greens are segmented and partitioned by huge swales and fall-offs. Every hole presents a unique challenge. Watch out for hidden hazards on several holes, but there are also plenty of risk-reward options. Hole No. 1 is about as intimidating an opening hole as you will ever play, and it sets you up for a round where trouble is always lurking. Unfortunately, the 9th hole is about as bad a hole as you will ever play, and if conditions are dry it is almost impossible to not lose your ball in the woods. This issue aside, this is a great, fun challenge and makes for a very satisfying day trip."
